A variety of sources: rain, rivers, boreholes, reservoirs. You make great stuff. Solar would make little difference even a 1kW 1.5kW array (which would take up valuable roof space that you often need to walk on and store stuff on) would only give decent output in summer and still then not much in terms of engine powering for a typical 10kW motor even if it uses less than full power for actually moving along. Your show is a wealth of knowledge as well as entertaining! Take care. David always had an interest in media - his earliest broadcasting recollection is sitting in his childhood bedroom DJing a 'radio show' to his mum downstairs via a pair of kids walkie-talkies - so today he creates videos about canals, narrowboats and life afloat on his YouTube channel Cruising The Cut, and about his DIY campervan conversion at Dont be afraid of covering the same ground time and time again.

Can you change the boats name and how?You can call a narrowboat wherever you want, pretty much, and rename it as often as you like (superstition holds that you should do this with the boat out of the water but I dont believe in all that nonsense).As long as you inform the Canal and River Trust so they can reissue your licence, youre OK.

Thank you and again! Can you fish in the canals and do you eat them?You can fish if you have the appropriate licences local angling groups tend to have the rights to each stretch of canal so talk to them. I am taking a break, not giving up, but I wont be cruising on my own boat. Oh, I can imagine just how your wife is pleased!
